1982-1983 Yearbook

Editor's Note It is almost unbelievable that this book is reall y finished today. Only four weeks ago we still had 244 pages to complete. But after a se rie s of seve ral a ll-nighters and class skips, the final deadline has been met and another Petit Jean is in the plant Between the day the theme was conce ived and today, when it was fully developed, lay a period of seve ral months of stru~l e, triumph and emotion. Of course, everything didn't always fall r ight into place but the challenge of it all was something we cou ldn' t resist. Knowing that thi s book would take it's place on the she lf next to 23 All-Ame ric a ns was, in itse lf, a firm motivato r. But t he keen satisfaction which accomp.an ies a job we ll-done played a part as well. Since this is my eighth year to work on a yearbook and the third time to edit one, it is with a bit of sentimentality that I fini sh t hese final pages. The completion of this book marks the completion o f a brief era in my life and I honestl y hate to see it end. To my high school journalism teacher, Mrs. Vicki Brantly, who opened my eyes to t he voca ti onal direction I needed to take, I say an inadequate, " thank you." And to my parents, who didn't rea ll y understa nd why I wou ld sacrifice sleep and food for the PJ , but stood beside me and supported me without question: I love and appreciate you more t han you'll ever know. And to God 1 give t he glory and praise. He was always there even when I fail ed to reac h for Him. It was Hi s strength that allowed me to continue. It was Hi s power that e nab led the Petit Jean to fly high."'<: - Ja y Simpson, editor Colophon Volume 59 01 the Petit Inn is a publication of the students of Harding University.
